Chapter 42: The Dust Settles
(The plot is always moving slowly, and my procrastination problem, is it going to be brought into the plot?) Now it's going to pick up the pace. )
In the face of reporters' questions, Gu Cancan directly responded to the film critic and hinted that a competitor was doing something, and the media people who got the explosion point were suddenly excited.
At the same time, Cui Fudong and several other film critics who made long comments on "Nightclub" were exposed by the bright era of collecting money to do things, Zhengzhi's position was reactionary, and the identity of the real hammer was a real cent.
Gu Cancan and her brilliant era tearing water army and film critics were on the hot search on the same day, causing heated discussions.
Those who support her are equal to those who oppose her.
Supporters said that the nightclub movie is indeed a masterpiece among domestic films; The opinion of those who oppose it is that Gu Cancan cannot listen to criticism, and some of the problems pointed out by film critics do exist.
But whether it is for or against, the attention has shifted to "Nightclub", many people who like to join in the fun on the Internet have not paid attention to "Nightclub" before, and now they are at least familiar with this movie, if they go to watch the movie, maybe "Nightclub" will become their choice.
On the second day of its release, "Nightclub" earned 3.5 million, and the box office increased slightly from yesterday. "Dragon Tiger Gate" and "Crazy Stone" are stable at the box office, still 2 million and 1 million respectively.
Gu Cancan and a group of actors flew from Jinmen to Shanghai to continue publicity.
The media did not let go of Gu Cancan, and continued to ask about bad reviews and water army, Gu Cancan's attitude remained unchanged, there was zero tolerance for water army and malicious bad reviews, and criticism was acceptable, but slander was not accepted.
At noon on the same day, Zhang Liangying posted the ticket stub of the "Nightclub" movie ticket on Weibo, praised Gu Cancan's directorial talent, praised "Nightclub", said that the story is definitely worth the ticket price, and solemnly recommended the movie "Nightclub" to his fans.
"Liangliang, the things in the film industry are deep, what are you doing in this troubled water, delete Weibo quickly." Feng Ke tried to convince Zhang Liangying to delete the Weibo post he had just posted.
Zhang Liangying smiled at him, but his attitude was very resolute: "It's good that the water in the film industry is deep, and I won't participate anyway." Cancan's movies are obviously good-looking, and they shouldn't be treated like this online. Besides, what I said is also true, the movie we watched together just now is really good. ”
"Who will say it clearly in the future, if you sing and act, maybe you will enter the film and television industry in the future, so you may offend people inadvertently. Besides, you and Gu Cancan are actually ......"
"Alright." Zhang Liangying interrupted Feng Ke's words, looked at no one around, held his arm intimately, and said with a sweet smile: "I only make music, only say the truth, if Gu Cancan's movie is not good, I won't post on Weibo." Okay, come with me to record a song. ”
"You." Feng Ke shook his head helplessly, but he did not strongly demand that Zhang Liangying must be deleted.
Three hours later, Zhou Bichang also posted the movie ticket stub of "Nightclub" on Weibo, the content is similar to Zhang Liangying's, and he also praised Gu Cancan and "Nightclub" and recommended it to his fans.
Gu Cancan only found out about this in the evening, and he was quite moved in his heart.
Her relationship with Zhang Liangying and Zhou Bichang can be said to be a gentleman's friendship as light as water, and several people rarely contact each other, but they didn't expect that when Gu Cancan was in trouble, the two bravely stood up and clearly expressed their support for Gu Cancan.
Gu Cancan accepted this love.
Before going to bed at night, Gu Cancan swiped Weibo, and suddenly found that He Jie also posted a Weibo to support her, and after less than ten minutes, she deleted it again.
This stupid girl, she is still in Tianyu, I guess she was scolded by the agent......
It turns out that he is not so lonely, Gu Cancan's mood is much better than yesterday.
Zhang Liangying and Zhou Bichang clearly supported Gu Cancan, as well as He Jie's Weibo was posted and deleted, all of which were reported by the media, boosting the attention of "Nightclub", and at the same time, Zhang Zhouhe and the three were also fed back considerable traffic, regardless of whether Gu Cancan's movie is good or not, the behavior of the three is indeed recognized by most netizens, and the three of them have also brushed a wave of character reputation, which can be regarded as a good retribution.
In the next ten days, Gu Cancan and the main creative team traveled to more than a dozen important box office cities and economically developed big cities across the country, tired of dogs.
However, the promotion of the roadshow to the box office is obvious, coupled with the positive reporting and evaluation of "Nightclub" on the Internet and the media, the box office has basically stabilized at about 3 million a day, and like "Crazy Stone", it has become a big dark horse.
And "Dragon Tiger Gate", except for the excitement of the first week, without Gu Cancan's action, the online reputation collapsed, and the box office became a slow downward trend. But after all, it is a big action movie that is obviously starring in the first line of Xiangjiang, and it can basically remain at about 1.5 million per day.
"Nightclub" was released for 12 days, with a cumulative box office of 30 million, which stunned the industry.
30 days after the release of "Crazy Stone", it obtained the extension key, but the box office potential was basically exhausted, and the box office has dropped to 500,000 per day.
On July 28, the blockbuster "Superman Returns" landed on the big screen in China, with a box office of 31 million in the first week.
The domestic film was directly exploded.
The box office of "Nightclub" dropped to 1.5 million a day, the box office of "Dragon Tiger Gate" and "Crazy Stone" was already negligible, and some theaters began to draw two films.
On August 6, "Mission Impossible 3" was released in China, with a weekly box office of 26 million.
Under the attack of "Superman Returns" and "Mission Impossible 3", "Nightclub" is vulnerable, and it is not qualified to fight against the two at all, and the daily box office has dropped to 600,000.
The box office of other domestic films is even less worth mentioning, since the end of July, two blockbusters have been wreaking havoc in China, and all domestic films in the same schedule have been wiped out, and none of them can compete with them, including "Crazy Stone" and "Nightclub".
To be honest, "Crazy Stone" and "Nightclub" should really be glad that the schedule does not conflict with imported blockbusters, otherwise the ending is really unknown.
On August 15, "Nightclub" and "Crazy Stone" were painted at the same time.
"Crazy Stone" has a total box office of 68 million, and "Nightclub" has a total of 51 million.
As for "Dragon Tiger Gate", it was painted offline as early as a week ago, with a cumulative box office of 42 million. Gu Cancan didn't remember what the total box office of the original time and space was, but it was definitely a lot less than the original time and space.
So far, Gu Cancan's first movie has come to an end, with a total investment of less than 2 million and a return on investment of more than 20 times.
This ratio surpasses that of Crazy Stone.
Of course, this is only the box office ratio, in fact, according to the box office share, the bright era can only be divided into 15 million.
Many people may wonder how the Bright Times can take this money, in fact, the total box office theaters have to take 50%, the distributor China Film takes 11.7%, pays taxes 8.3%, and the Bright Times can get 30% of the box office.
The total cost of filming and publicity costs is nearly 3 million, and now the box office income alone is 15 million, 5 times the return on investment, which is not low.
What's more, there are also copyright derivative profits, such as copyright sales, DVDs. The broadcast rights of "Nightclub" can be sold to TV stations and video websites. The domestic painting is underway, but the neighboring countries are negotiating, as long as it is sold, it will be a net profit, and the cost is negligible.
The dust has settled, and the bright era has made a lot of money on "Nightclub".
